How can we do this? We too have experience with IIH, we have found ways to live with this condition and we want to share them with you.

What can you expect from I Have IIH? We offer you constructive advice based on experience and success. Although we do offer information on the various topics from authorities on IIH, we primarily aim to help you to achieve a more positive and productive life with this condition. We don't put a time limit on your membership, and actively encourage you to keep coming back, just to let us know how you've been getting on, as well as to share your support, coping strategies and friendship with other members.

We are members of the RARE Foundation Alliance.

It is open to any patient with a confirmed diagnosis of idiopathic or secondary intracranial hypertension, regardless of nationality or country of residence and it is FREE.

Living with IIH

You'll all have one and the same condition. It is known mainly as the latter one as there is no known cause, hence the idiopathic. Confusing we know! If you've just been diagnosed you can get together here with others to talk over how you feel about it, and ask the long-term sufferers lots of questions and advice on how to deal with it.
